Denis Naughten (Roscommon-Galway, Independent) | Oireachtas source

On motion 5a, and this point is related to motion 5cbut I will not go into that, some 19 Members of the House, who comprise one eighth of the membership of the House, are non-aligned Independents. Is provision being made for them under motion 5abecause it is not covered on the d'Hondt mechanism? Will those Members who comprise one eighth of the membership of the House be represented on this committee?
